A Snapshot of Santa Fe
Friday, February 26th, 2010
Santa Fe, New Mexico captures an essence much overlooked in today’s fast-paced lifestyle. In a world where we are so driven to “do”, we often forget to simply “be”. The rich soil, lush landscape, and crisp air reminded me of the fact that there is a much larger world outside my own. What a refreshing change of scenery. It wasn’t all sightseeing though. Mosley Tribes in conjunction with The Social Trust handled business for the upcoming Mosley Tribes Fall/Winter 2010 season. Here are some pictures taken along the way.

A NATIVE PERSPECTIVE
Thursday, February 25th, 2010
I know that i have not posted in a minute so here is a quick recap of the last 2 weeks. So me and the crew from The Social Trust decided to not go to PROJECT trade show and actually go to a place that doesn’t not shorten our life on this earth. We drove from Los Angeles to Santa Fe, NM which took us about 15 hours to get to, with intermittent stops to out of the way towns, abandon buildings, meteor craters, and Wendys. So I really don’t want to give it all away but the reason for our trip was to get in touch and understand the rich native culture and art of the south west. The hub of this artistic revolution is in the pueblo of Santa Fe, New Mexico which was our final destination. So we have a few films that will be coming out in the next couple weeks. Stay tuned.

Some of you might be fortunate enough actually know who these gentlemen are. This image captures some of the heaviest hitters in footwear and beyond and i would have to say that if you have ever been in the shoe game and keep up with the illest kicks, these are the guys who are responsible for many past, present and future footwear collections and amazing retail stores. Campin out for a shoe drop has become a culture here in the west coast, more so in Los Angeles. La Brea and Fairfax ave have become the mecca for many shoe collectors and this saturday at the UNDFTD on La Brea the new GOURMET + UNDFTD Quattro releases at ALL Undftd locations. Feb. 15th on our online shop. Feb. 22nd worldwide.
